The value of a neighborhoods real estate can be determined by its bakeries. Saint Honore on Port Washington Blvd. in my new favorite Long Island Bakery. Ive have enjoyed more mousse then Sarah Palin from many bakeries on Long Island and can tell you that no matter what part of Long Island you live on, its worth taking a drive to Port Washington to delight in everything that St. Honore has to offer. From fresh baked breads, to delicate and delicous patries, to fancy cakes with enough fondant to film and episode of Ace of Cakes.
While Saint Honore’s nearest competition Baked to Perfection is a worthy opponent and creates there own decadent treats, there service and style need an update. Saint Honore delivers the goods and goes above and beyond with friendly service and help descriving the goods it sells. My biggest disapointment at Saint Honore is that they dont take credit or debit cards. I am finding one of the common themes among good eating establishments is they often play by there rules. For the most part that means CASH ONLY. It is a shame two because you could easily max out your credit card feeding a crave in your sweet tooth. There is an ATM acrosss the street and another in a nearby drug store if you have to take some cash out. the shop can also be a bit busy during the holiday times. Plan ahead. Avoid the line.
Baked To Perfection is a small Bakery, cookie and pastry shop in the Port Washington area on north shore of Long Island. This main street shop is tucked amongst a chain of strip stores walking distance from the Train Station. They have a fresh assortment of breads, cakes, cookies, cupcakes and other usual pastries. I scanned the glass counter looking for my favorites. When i spotted a chocolate mousse there was no turning back. I asked a the young lady at the counter for more details and was answered quickly in a tone that was not rude but not exactly welcoming. Unlike 
Butter cooky is a small pastry shop located on 140 Plandome road, Manhaset, NY. Although its small it has enough space to display every pastry, cake or bread you could possibly want along with areas of seating to relax and enjoy them with a cup of coffee or expresso. There is lotos of dark wood work, mirrors and brass work. For many reasons it has similar but smaller feel to Ferraro’s in little italy. Butter Coooky is much more local and more quaint. That pastries are delicious and sweet. I Sat down with an expresso , black and white mouse, cappuccino mouse, and one big glass of water, Everything was delicious. I like the cappuccino mouse slightly better then the black and white mouse, The black and white mouse tasted very sweet and mabe like it as missing something to balance the sweetness out, Good but very sweet.
